    17 days to split between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Indo - Raja Ampat, Komodo or Bali??

    Ok, trying to finalize a few flights and need to make some adjsutments. So we actually arrive at 11:35 PM on the 11th of May. So right off the bat this schedule get's a bit tighter. Am I getting an overwhelming no on KUL? We have a friend that recommended it and I'm thinking we need to detox...

    17 days to split between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Indo - Raja Ampat, Komodo or Bali??

    Gah! You're right! Just hate the fact that I'm traveling all the way from Florida in the US and getting so close to these spots but not going! I'll stick with the previous advice. My wife will enjoy the diving more than the surf. Time to start booking flights!

    17 days to split between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Indo - Raja Ampat, Komodo or Bali??

    Keep the comments coming folks! Should I stick with the spots mentioned previously or is it worth trying to fit the Mentaweis in? As for the crowds I would honestly rather sacrifice some wave quality for smaller crowds. Although I consider myself to be a good/advanced surfer, I will also have...

    17 days to split between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Indo - Raja Ampat, Komodo or Bali??

    Excellent recommendations all, I really really appreciate it. Sounds like RA is out, which is in line with what I expected. Budget would be about $500 each for diving (hoping to get 2-3 days in) but that would exclude lodging or flights related to those trips. I'm flexible, it seems like I...

    Is it possible to dive Indonesia on a budget? What are your recommendations?

    Great and very helpful posts everyone, I appreciate it. As for the pacific vs caribbean I'll agree. We've dove extensively throughout the caribbean and while it has a special place in my heart for spearfishing/lobstering/diving .....the sites we saw in Thailand were unbelievable. I thought I was...

    Is it possible to dive Indonesia on a budget? What are your recommendations?

    We can exclude accommodations/ airfare / food as that's going to be an issue no matter where we go in Indo. We have a few dives coming up and if we no diving on our boat we usually spend ~$150-$250 a day for dives. I would say for this trip we would like to get at least 2 days in so figure we...

    Is it possible to dive Indonesia on a budget? What are your recommendations?

    The internal flights seem pretty reasonable at first glance and definitely something I would be interested in to get away from the touristy areas and see the more remote areas. Bali is still on my list but it's quickly getting crowded out by Lombok/Sumba/Sumatra. I'd be interested in the...

    Is it possible to dive Indonesia on a budget? What are your recommendations?

    Hi there, My wife and I are planning next year's vacation and as of now we've narrowed it down to Indonesia because of the availability for surf, diving and food. I still have some research to do and I was hoping for some assistance on the diving side. The dive liveaboards seem like an...

    Looking for a console setup with compass, pressure and computer, recommendations?

    I've done the research and this is what I want. I am looking to spend $200-$250 for a used console and so far the only one I really like is the Mares Mission 3 puck (linked below). I think I could find that in the price I am looking for but I am wondering if there are other consoles that are...

    Recommendations for a depth/pressure gauge?

    For my birthday my parents bought me a new regulator setup. I figure it's a hint for me to stop using their stuff and to get my own. So now I am in the hunt for a BC, depth and pressure gauges and a tank. Any recommendations for sometime not too fancy/ expensive but quality that will last a...
